As the network evolves and you add new business processes, systems, and services, the consequences and costs of downtime increase dramatically, and delays in resolving issues can bring your business operations to a standstill. Network-related issues create the following challenges:

• When a problem occurs that can disrupt business operations and communication, you must resolve the issue as quickly as possible, before it can significantly affect business continuity.
• Technology changes fast and keeping your IT staff up to date on the latest advances and security threats can be difficult.
• Bugs or security issues can affect the availability, performance, and reliability of your network if they are allowed to exist undetected.
